- Milton Ruben Young was a United States politician, most notable for representing North Dakota in the United States Senate from 1945 until 1981. At the time of his retirement, he was the most senior Republican in the Senate. Young was born at Berlin, North Dakota, and graduated from LaMoure High School. He attended North Dakota State University and Graceland College. In 1919, he married Malinda Benson; they had three sons. (Malinda died in 1969. Young later married Patricia Byrne of Bowman, North Dakota. ) After college, Young returned home to operate his father's farm. Young became increasingly interested in politics during the depression and drought of the late 1920s and 1930s. He was active in community affairs, serving on the school, township, and county Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA) boards. He stood for election to the North Dakota House of Representatives in 1932; he won, and was then elected to the state Senate just two years later. Young was also one of the key persons in developing the Republican Organizing Committee in North Dakota during the 1940s. With the death of John Moses in 1945, Governor Fred G. Aandahl appointed Young to fill the vacant U.S. Senate seat, and Young was forced to relinquish management of the family farm, in order to fulfill his duties in Washington. Young spent the remainder of his career in the Senate, becoming one of the longest serving members of the Senate in its history. His major committee assignments were on the Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry committee, and the Appropriations committee of which he was the ranking Republican member. In 1974, during his last election for the U.S. Senate, Young's age was being used against him during the Republican primary; Young had himself filmed breaking a piece of board with his bare hands and easily won renomination. As a result of the 1980 elections, Republicans won control of the Senate. Young, as the longest serving Republican Senator, would have been in line to become President pro tempore. However, he had chosen to retire instead of running for a seventh six-year term. In deference to his long service in the body, he was elected President pro tempore by the lame-duck, Democratic controlled Senate on December 5, 1980, and served for one day. Senator Young died at his retirement home in Sun City, Arizona on May 31, 1983 and was buried at Berlin, North Dakota.

Ukończył LaMoure High School, a następnie studiował na North Dakota State University i Graceland College. Przez pewien czas (aż do roku 1945) zarządzał ojcowską farmą. W roku 1919, kiedy miał 22 lata, ożenił się z Malindą Benson, która zmarła w 1969. Następnie ponownie wstąpił w związek małżeński z Patricią Byrne. W okresie Wielkiego Kryzysu zainteresował się polityką i w roku 1932 został wybrany w skład North Dakota House of Representatives, gdzie zasiadał dwa lata, zanim nie zasiadł w stanowym senacie. Pełnił też wysokie funkcję organizacyjne wśród republikanów z Dakoty Północnej. W roku 1945, po śmierci senatora Johna Mosesa gubernator Fred G. Aandahl mianował go jego następcą. W Senacie Stanów Zjednoczonych Young zasiadał do roku 1981, jako jeden z najdłużej urzędujących członków tej izby amerykańskiego Kongresu. Zasiadał m. in. w komitetach senackich ds. rolnictwa i leśnictwa, oraz był liderem mniejszości republikańskiej w Appropriations Committee. Nie ubiegał się o ponowny wybór w roku 1980, kiedy to republikanie uzyskali większość. W związku z tym, aby go uhonorować, odchodzący Kongres głosami demokratów i republikanów wybrał go, jako najdłużej urzędującego senatora opozycji, na prezydenta pro tempore Senatu USA, która funkcję pełnił przez jeden dzień. Był najkrócej urzędującą osobą na tym stanowisku (najdłużej zaś Carl T. Hayden Po odejściu na emeryturę zamieszkał w Arizonie, gdzie zmarł w Sun City. Pochowano go w rodzinnym Berlinie.
